Did you know that Andrew Murray was not always loving, humble, and gentle but was once described as a Christian Minister whose pastoral visitation carried terror in the hearts of his parishioners? This story traces his journey to transformation.

In 1860, thirty-two-year-old Andrew Murray unexpectedly becomes the key leader in a revival that spreads throughout the Cape and beyond. But barely two years later, he discovers that he has lost the blessings gained during the revival and has started to strive in his own strength again. Although he consecrates his life anew, the desired experience of the filling with the Holy Spirit fails to eventuate.

He nevertheless hangs on in faith through bitter court battles with liberals plus notable missionary endeavors and educational projects, ever wondering when God will seal his consecration with the desired experience. But it is only when God finally intervenes by stopping him in his tracks that he is forced to confront the barriers that are blocking the blessing.
